An overhead rigid conductor system is mainly applied to the subway and recently studies on the rigid system have been conducted for applications such as tunnels of high-speed line and speed improvement of a conventional lines up to 250km/h. Power feeding performance which is the most important in a rigid system can be measured by contact force and characteristics of this contact force are related to the shape and material of the R-BAR. In this paper, we analyze the measurements of contact force, current heating temperature, impedance of a rigid conductor which was developed in Korea, after that we compare static characteristics of home and abroad rigid conductors which have various shapes and materials.

This study was carried out to analyze the microstructure characteristics of electrolyte membrane through XRD, SEM and AC impedance measurement for using in high temperature steam electrolysis(HTE). It was investigated that thermal stability and electric characteristics by sintering condition using dry and wet process, and confirmed growth of particle and density change by sintering temperature. The sintering temperature and behavior had an effect on the relative density of the ceramic and the average grain size. The more amount of dispersant in organic compound increase, the more the density increased. But the binder was shown opposite phenomenon. It was analyzed that electrolyte resistance and electrical characteristics using AC impedance. The electrical properties of YSZ grain boundary changed with the sintering temperature.

In this paper, the broad-band design theory for weakly-coupled Tap-Off for CATV systems has been described and the transmission line impedance matching method has been proposed. The fabricated weakly-coupled Tap-Offs based on the above theory and method have been much improved in the frequency characteristics compared with conventional ones. Thus, the useful bandwidth of weakly-coupled Tap-Offs have been extended from 5 to 2000 MHz. It is also recognized that turn numbers of the coils composing the transformer are not integers but 0.9, 1, 1.9, 2, 2.9, etc., in the actual circuits. Further, the practical measurements of the frequency characteristics for a fabricated weakly-coupled Tap-Off show very good agreements with theoretical results, and hence, the validity of the proposed design theory and transmission line impedance matching method have been confirmed.

Repeater Duplexer of 800MHz band consists of 4pole transmitter band pass filter, receiver band pass filter and branch circuit. Circuit parameter of Duplexer such as coupled capacitance of equivalent circuit was drawn out and used to coupled line characteristics impedance (Zoo, Zoe) that satisfied resonator condition and attenuation condition. Simulation was carried out by the ADS(Advanced Design System) were obtained good attenuation characteristics (869~894MHz： 65㏈(Min.),824~349MHz： 65㏈(Min.)

Photovoltaic(PV) array, which is generally installed outside, has the possibility to be damaged by high voltage due to lightning. Because the surge characteristics of PV array have not b eon fully Identified yet, there is a very important issue whether PV array should be connected with ground or not. In this paper, a basic model of PV array is provided considering the PV cell's barrier capacitance and ground capacitance for analysis of surge characteristics.

Started upon it discovery by Wright et al in 1973, studies on the solid polymer electrolyte are being carried out vigorously. So, models of Li-polymer battery have been developed through R-L-C components combination and P-spice functional block in this paper. The impedance characteristics of Li-polymer battery with R-L-C components are presented. Simulation results using P-spice functional model are compared with measured charge/discharge characteristics.

A frequency-variable ultrasonic vibrator is designed, which is made of a multi-layered PZT vibrator with a conical horn. Transmission line equations for the conical horn are derived and analyzed using the equivalent circuit method in order to analyze the characteristics of the vibrator. The controllability of the driving characteristics by varying the electrical impedance is confirmed by the experimental results of the free admittance characteristics and the vibrational velocity distributions.

In this paper, the wideband microstrip antennas for the PCS & IMT-200O dual band are studied. Experimental and simulation results on the dual band antenna are presented. Simulation results are in good agreement with measurements. The experimental and simulation results confirm the wideband characteristics of the antenna. The studied antenna satisfies the wideband characteristics that are required characteristics for above 420 MHz impedance bandwidth for the PCS & IMT-2OO0 dual band antenna. In this paper, through the designing of a dual band antenna, we have presented the availability for PCS & IMT-20O0 base station antenna.

To provide model parameters for servo control system design, dynamic characteristics of a piezoelectric microactuator for hard disk drive(HDD) were investigated. At first frequency response characteristics was measured and a second order model was proposed. Here the amplitude dependent dynamic characteristics such as low frequency gain and damping ratio were studied. In addition, the load current and equivalent impedance of the piezoelectric actuator were measured by varying excitation voltage and frequency. At last, the super-harmonic resonance of the piezoelectric actuator was discussed.

A frequently used bioimpedance analytical method in Korea is the segmental multi-frequency BIA (SMF-BIA) method, but it is not directly determined at a segmented impedance. This study was to compare SMF-BIA determinations with direct segmented determinations for accuracy and appropriateness of segment parameters. This study is to compare the segment parameters, accuracy and appropriateness of the multi-frequency segmental bioimpedance analysis. To this end, 108 elderly individuals were measured. Segmented bioelectrical measurements obtained from a SMF-BIA (Inbody S10) at 50 kHz and measured with a phase sensitive single frequency device (SF-BIA, bia-101, RJL / akern systems) were compared. The significant difference (%) was demonstrated between single - and multiple frequency determinations of the right upper limb (R = 35.5 ± 6.2%, P < 0.001; Xc = 2.7 ± 7.6%, P < 0.01), left upper limb difference (R= 33. 9 ± 6.0%, P < 0.001; Xc = 2.8 ± 8.3%, P < 0.01), right lower limb difference (R = 18.6 ± 4.3%, P < 0.001; Xc = 25.8 ± 10.0%, P < 0.001), left lower limb difference (R = 18.0 ± 4.7%, P < 0.001; Xc = 31.8%). Of the results determined with the two BIA methods, the impedance measurements of the limbs and whole body showed a high correlation (RA: R = 0. 950, LA: R = 0. 949, RL: R = 0.899, LL: R = 0.88), and in the agreement test, the impedance values of the upper limbs and whole body also showed strong agreement (ICC > 0.9), but in the Xc, the correlation was weak. In conclusion, it was found that although bioimpedance devices had significantly different characteristics and inconsistent cross sectionally, there was a high population level agreement in the upper and lower extremities in determining segmental resistance value changes. But a large error was found on the trunk. Further studies were needed for reducing the error.
